About Barry - Your Local Guide
Barry is a vibrant coastal town located approximately 45 miles east of Swansea in the Vale of Glamorgan. Once the world's largest coal exporting port, Barry has transformed into a popular seaside destination, famous for its beautiful beaches at Barry Island and more recently as the setting for the hit BBC comedy series 'Gavin & Stacey'. The town combines its rich maritime heritage with modern attractions, offering visitors a mix of history, beach activities, and convenient access to Cardiff.
For visitors hiring vehicles in Barry, the town offers excellent access to both coastal attractions and the wider Vale of Glamorgan. Barry Island, with its golden sandy beaches, traditional amusement arcades, and scenic promenade, is the town's main attraction. Fans of 'Gavin & Stacey' can visit filming locations including the famous Trinity Street. The town is also home to the Barry Tourist Railway and Porthkerry Country Park, offering beautiful woodland walks and views across the Bristol Channel.
Barry benefits from good transport links, with easy access to the M4 motorway via the A4232. The town is just a short drive from Cardiff Airport, making it convenient for visitors flying into Wales. Barry's location in the Vale of Glamorgan makes it an ideal base for exploring the beautiful Heritage Coast, with its dramatic cliffs and hidden coves, as well as the nearby cities of Cardiff and Bridgend.
When hiring a vehicle in Barry, consider that Barry Island can become extremely busy during summer months and weekends, with limited parking that fills quickly. Our range of vehicles accommodates different needs - from compact cars perfect for town navigation to larger vehicles ideal for family beach trips with all the necessary equipment. The town has several car parks, though these can be in high demand during peak season.
Parking in Barry varies significantly depending on the area and season. Barry Island has dedicated parking areas that charge during the summer season and can fill very early on sunny days. The town centre has both on-street parking and dedicated car parks, while residential areas may have restrictions. During peak summer season and events, we strongly recommend arriving early to secure parking. We suggest discussing your specific plans when booking to ensure we provide the most suitable vehicle for exploring this popular Welsh seaside town and the beautiful Vale of Glamorgan.
